Initially the Irish Air Corps flew three examples (of this trainer export version) from 1956, with a further three four years later. They were replaced by Fouga Magisters in the 1970s. This frame had come to the museum by March 1989.

One of the few aircraft at this museum that is under some sort of cover though the plywood on the nose has already deteriorated badly as can be seen here.

Ended up in France at Savigny-lès-Beaune Castle.
